The Future of Further Education?

0 comments

Well, this blog is supposed to about education (as was Sid Waddell, once upon a time) so...



I'd like to think that there's an element of irony here but can't really see it. And didn't The Mirror used to be a newspaper famous for it's campaigning & investigative journalism? Or are we all Sun readers now?

Anyway, this final post of 2009 was inspired by a story from The Guardian - Darts academy aims to shed beer and tattoos image by Peter Walker.

All the best for 2010. With Cameron and his rapid puppies on the horizon, we'll need all the luck(?) we can muster. Send in Charlie Brooker I say!
